Royals at Grand Prix
THE Earl and Countess of Wessex enjoyed a day of motor sport when they visited the British Grand Prix and thanked an F1 team for supporting the Duke of Edinburgh’s (Dofe) award.
Before the start of the race at Silverstone, Edward and Sophie met Mclaren drivers Lando Norris and Daniel Ricciardo and their team, which is joining forces with the Dofe to encourage the public to take part in the charity’s new fundraising challenge – Do It 4 Youth.
The initiative aims to raise money to enable a million more young people from deprived communities take part in the awards scheme, regardless of their background.
